Optical spectra for the 0.6 + 0.2  M model at −5, +0, +5, and +10 days with respect to B-band maximum, which occurs 8 days after explosion. The spectra are dominated by Ti ii features, along with the Ca ii H and K and IR lines and a short-lived Cr ii feature near 4600 Å. The lack of Si ii features is also a notable signature.
